Social Scene – August 2009
The ladies technical session was well attended despite the school holidays, and the wet and cold conditions. Next technical session will be in September (see calendar).
The run to the Barossa and then on to Gawler to Bob Fielke’s cricket bat making demonstration certainly attracted a lot of interest with about 50 people attending. Lunch was at Lou Miranda’s at Rowland Flat before driving to Gawler. Bob gave a very entertaining and interesting talk on how he makes cricket bats and you didn’t have to be a cricket fan to enjoy. Thanks to Brian and Peggy for organising the successful day.
The mid week run on Wednesday 12th August, is going to Goolwa for lunch before visiting the Goolwa Car Museum operated by Mike Finniss. Meeting place is Crafers Hotel for coffee at 10.00am, departing 11.00am.
Sunday 16th August is a lunch run to Lyndoch via the Adelaide Hills Markets at Lobethal for morning tea. Please let Jack know if you are intending to come along as numbers are required for the lunch venue.
Note for the diary: This year’s Christmas dinner will again be at the Royal Adelaide Golf Club. After so many favourable comments on the venue last year the commitee decided to return in 2009. The price for the dinner has been kept the same $40 members $50 non members.
